Clarke: The reason ALIE created the City of Light. Nuclear reactors inside power plants that survived the bombs are melting down. If we can't figure out a way to fix it, all of us will be dead in six months.

Indra: There are a thousand Ice Nation warriors on the street who want to kill us today.

Roan: No, letting the ambassadors have a voice keeps the peace here. Azgeda holds this city through force alone and the Flame won't keep the clans at bay forever. If they unite against us, we could lose. And if we lose...

(Open on Arkadia. Clarke, Bellamy, Raven, and Monty are searching for a way to beat the radiation.)

Bellamy: We've been at this for two days, there must be something we haven't thought of. What if we could reach the nearest nuclear reactor?

Raven: I told you, the meltdown started months ago there's no magic button to turn them off. This isn't black rain but it will be soon. That's why we have to focus on riding out the radiation, finding some place safe. And big enough to hold all five hundred of us.

Clarke: This isn't just about saving us. I made a promise to Roan, it's about saving everyone.

Raven: That's why we need to tell everyone. Crowdsource it. If there's another Mount Weather out there the Grounders will know about it.

Bellamy: You think they're just gonna tell us? Just like that? If you tell everybody they're going to die the Coalition is over, Roan falls and the Grounders will be at our gate.

Raven: Then just tell our people. We need more minds on this problem. On the Ark, people volunteered for the Culling because they were told the truth and given a choice.

Monty: Think, Alpha Station survived for ninety-seven years in space, through elevated radiation levels and extreme temperature fluctuations. Sound familiar? All we have to do is patch up the ship. We're standing in our viable solution.

(The next day. Bellamy is with Miller and Bryan.)

Bellamy: Raven says we can get it sealed up in a month. The Ark is our Ark.

Miller: I get it, ok, so trees drying meat until we can grow our own food, we'll get oxygen scrubbers but how do we get enough water for five hundred people?

Bellamy: King Roan. Skaikru and Azgeda are allies. He sent us to get a part of the ship, a machine.

Dakiva: King Roan hasn't returned to Ice Nation in three years. The banished prince is not my king.

(Tybe takes out a dagger.)

Bellamy: Look, if we'd come to take this place back there would be a lot more of us and you know that.

Tybe: Let's just get this over with, Dakiva.

(Tybe cuts them free.)

Tybe: Free them! Where is this machine for the King?

(Arkadia. Raven is leading a repair team.)

Raven: We've got a lot of work to get ready for winter. Sector four, crack in the outer wall we need to patch it up, start by repairing the damaged panels. Sector five we need to get that tree out of the hole and seal it up. Any questions? Ok, go.

Raven: I can't run this repair alone, Clarke. Even if I had complete mobility. Even if Sinclair was still alive. Who the hell am I giving orders, I'm-I'm not the chief.

Clarke: I'm not the Chancellor. But here we are. For what it's worth, there's nobody I trust to do this more than you. As soon as Bellamy gets back with that machine, we go public with everything and get you the help that you need.

Kane: I'm sorry for your loss. But the chip, technology, it affected all of us, every clan. You blame Skaikru for the City of Light, shouldn't you also credit us for destroying it. After everything we've suffered, why spill more blood? The clans are stronger together.

Rafel: You see Ilian? The King can't fight or his minions wouldn't be here trying to stop us.

Octavia: If the King wasn't hurt do you think this coward would give a crap about your family?

Rafel: Since you landed here your people have done nothing but rip our world apart.

Bellamy: We have six months, we have Raven. Are you telling me she can't find another way to make water?

Monty: Yes. Look, I know you want to make up for the things you've done, believe me, we all do, but we need to think of the big picture. Twenty-five people instead of five hundred? We're talking about the human race, Bellamy. We need to get this machine back to Arkadia it's the only way.

Clarke: So now you know the truth. I know you're afraid, I know you're angry, but when I shut down A.L.I.E. I knew there was to way for us to get through this, together. Alpha Station is that way. Every single one of us will survive on this ship. It won't be easy, Raven needs volunteers if we're gonna get it ready in time. It'll be a lot of work but now you understand why we need to do it. If we stick together, I give you my word, we won't just survive, we'll thrive.
